Figure1. Creating an ‘object’ for Nostracker<br />

After having defined <strong>the</strong> object, <strong>the</strong> system automatically screens, posts, tweets and<br />

news that are published on a daily basis by a number of pre-selected ‘actors’ and<br />

‘media’, in search of <strong>the</strong> ‘defining terms’ that we have previously described.<br />

The common database that <strong>the</strong> system analyzes is comprised of a) actors which<br />

include around 20,000 blogs and 5,000 Twitter profiles, and b) <strong>the</strong> media –ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

common database, comprised of <strong>the</strong> 100 Spanish online media. The blogs and Twitter<br />

profiles have been carefully selected, and represent <strong>the</strong> most active ‘actors’ in <strong>the</strong><br />

Spanish cyber-communication world.<br />

Once <strong>the</strong> system collects <strong>the</strong> information of all <strong>the</strong> actors and media that have<br />

published some news, post or tweet, it presents <strong>the</strong> results as two types of graphs. The<br />

first type of graph presents two chronological graphs: one for <strong>the</strong> results found in blogs<br />

and social networks (Twitter) and one for <strong>the</strong> results found in online media (Graph 1).<br />
